People suffering from osteophytes in their heels recover from this ailment with few treatment sessions. It is not even necessary to touch the site of symptoms during the treatment; instead, mobilisation of the lumbar spine and massage of the back muscles are sufficient. Further examinations have not shown any traces of osteophytes, although x-rays have shown extra tissue growth in the heel bone before treatment. This proves how important undisturbed transmission of nerve impulses is for our body.
